Organic Chemistry Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Lyles, TN

One of the best breaks from lab work in graduate school was teaching and tutoring! I have taught as a Graduate Teaching Assistant for three years in organic chemistry (6 semesters), teaching both in the lab and in the class. During this time, I also tutored for both Organic Chemistry I and II on the side (class or lab). I also have four years of actual organic chemistry research under my belt! I am animated and like to use analogies and humor so the students can recall concepts we've covered. Having spent hours upon hours in the organic chemistry student help room at Ohio State, I know all the problems students normally run into. I firmly believe in a visual style of learning, which pairs well with the visual subject matter of organic chemistry. While I initially went to graduate school to become a research scientist, my focus shifted to teaching after I found out I enjoyed it so much!

I am a pre-med student at MTSU, and I will be graduating with a second degree in Science this year. I have experience tutoring grade school students in math and reading subjects. I also have experience teaching college students in science subjects. Before attending MTSU, I was a professional ballroom dancer and instructor for five years. I have experience teaching ballroom dancing to children as young as five and adults as young as 70! I am a believer in learning and understanding concepts and principles of the subject being studied. Asking why and how we come to a conclusion rather than memorizing or mindlessly going through steps generates long term success. I believe that this is the best way for a student to prepare for any question or scenario that may be asked or given as well as preparing for future expansion in the subject.

My educational phylosophy is to advance student learning in science and mathematics. As a teacher, I create the environmet that promotes student confidence in the student's abilities and instill a sense of competence and a sense of self-worth. I am a constructivist that follows the Tennessee and national standards. All activities construct conceptual and problem-solving skills. I believe students learn science and mathematics effectively with relevant, hands-on experience. I design learning experiences that take into account the different learning styles and each student's knowledge base. I model behavior that demonstrates respect for others and create a climate for a free exchange of ideas. I have twenty-seven years of experience teaching Chemistry at the undergraduate level and four years experience teaching high school. I taught Chemistry, Physics, and Pre-Calculus at a pr

As a Mad Scientist, I learned how to make learning science fun. I like to spend a session with my students learning their background and their learning style. My students have always appreciated my ability to look at problems and subjects from different angles. I like to use every day metaphors for teaching math problems and also try to teach students how to use a "process of elimination" style. For example, it is easier to identify whether or not an object is a cell phone by picking out one trait that a cell phone has and determining if the object has that trait rather than describing all the traits of the object and then determining if it is a cell phone. While obtaining my chemistry degree at Butler, I also completed all requirements for a secondary education license with the exception of student teaching and worked as a math and science tutor with a private tutoring service in In

As a summa cum laude college graduate and a future medical school student starting in August, I have always strived for perfection during my college education. Receiving a B.S. in biology with a minor in chemistry, I have a very strong knowledge base in these sciences. However, due to the variety of classes required for admission to medical school, I have a strong foundation in subject matter such as physics and verbal reasoning, as well as writing skills, which are applicable to all classes. During the last 2 years I have tutored students in subjects such as cell biology, genetics, immunology, anatomy and physiology, general and organic chemistry, and physics. I thoroughly enjoy teaching others. Seeing a student have that “aha” moment when they finally understand a concept gives me a great feeling of accomplishment. I always try to cater to each student based upon their previous educati

I have student teaching experience in physical science at the eighth grade level as well as biology at the high school level. I also have prior tutoring experience at a sylvan learning center where I tutored students in basic math, science homework support and ACT prep in science. I'm currently substitute teaching and tutoring a family of three children all in the sciences. I believe that all children have the potential to become successful, lifelong learners. I also believe that I have the kindness and patience that's required to work one-on-one with students and help explain difficult concepts in a way that they can understand. It is very important to listen to the students and ask them where they are having trouble, and help explain the concepts slowly and clearly. I also understand how some students may feel because I, too, needed a tutor at one time in high school.

My Master’s Degree in Environmental Management from Duke is the centerpiece of my career training as I was driven to achieve a high level of excellence in environmental analysis. While a student at Tennessee Tech I taught undergraduate classes in Biology. I also taught workshops for some of my employers. I have had a long practical career in environmental consulting which gave me many real life experiences that I can draw from for examples. I was required to have excellent writing and communication skills to report findings to clients and write technical reports. I love teaching and working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I am available to help your child find academic success. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. My goal is to provide the best education possible. I am a firm believer in teaching through discovery and in providi

Over the past ten years I have been a student (BS), an engineer, a teacher, and a student again (MS, PhD). My interests in education have led me from the high-need classrooms on Chicago's West side to Vanderbilt's Peabody campus to engage a PhD program in educational policy. I have a wide body of experience ranging from coaching gymnastics and circus arts to university level chemistry and teacher education courses. Over the past several years, I have found the teaching-learning cycle to be incredibly rewarding. Through my work with elementary, high school, and college students, I understand the anxieties that often surround math, science, and high pressure assessments. In tutoring and in the classroom I work to develop individualized scaffolding to build the skills, knowledge, and confidence needed to successfully engage the material. As a great fan of history, art, politics, and at

I am currently an assistant professor at Austin Peay State University where I teach biochemistry and organic chemistry. My commitment to education has been demonstrated since the start of my postdoctoral position in which I performed research at Emory University while guest lecturing at Clark Atlanta University in Genetics. My passion is for all science as well as for education. I know that my students are confident in my belief in them by the challenging work I give them and the assistance I provide to make sure they are able to complete the challenging assignments. An effective teacher knows that learning is a very active process. To this end, my effectiveness of teaching always requires engaging students. I believe that involvement enables the students to be proactive about their learning. I firmly believe that the success of the students is my highest priority as an educator an

Being a Chemistry major, I have exceptional knowledge in Science and Math. I have worked with children from Elementary to High School. I have tutored/taught highly intelligent children and some resource students. Working as a substitute teacher, I developed many techniques and strategies to get children to understand. While working at a Youth Development Center, I engaged with teenage girls whom were not interested in learning, but I was able to gain their attention and get them involved in the learning process. Many of these students, I helped prepare for the GED test, a test that I scored highly on myself. All children grasp concepts in different ways and from different methods. I have gained experience on how to pin point a child's learning style and have learned how to become more effective by teaching at a child's pace and level of understanding. So, my teaching style is dependant

Everyone has had that one special teacher that truly cared for their students and was passionate about what they taught. It is that type of teacher that can change the course of a students life. For me to have the opportunity to teach would be my chance to have a positive impact on a young mind that may or may not be teetering on the edge of giving up. It is a teachers job to provide the information necessary to learn the subject at hand, but beyond that, I feel a teacher should strive to inspire passion in their students. One of the best ways to help a student is through empowerment. Teach them the basic mechanisms, so they can apply those mechanisms to each system and subject they encounter. It is more important to teach them to learn than to teach them to regurgitate what is in a text book. Upon graduating college, I decided to pursue a career in the banking industry. Within a

I have had experience as a teacher for 2 years. My employer was Metro Nashville public school and they certified me to teach mathematics to grades 9th through 12th. As a teacher I taught geometry at Mcgavock Comprehensive High School and algebra and geometry at Whitescreek High School. I enjoy finding out a student’s area of difficulty and address it directly. Students have different learning styles, it easy for me teach in a variety of styles so that to make sure my students understands. I do also apply almost everything I teach to real world situations, for example most young students may think that learning about triangles will not benefit his/her career in business. As his/her teacher I will show the student how one can use triangles to determine where to built a manufacturing company equidistant (meaning the distant between each raw material supply place to the manufacturing place i

my approach to teaching or tutoring have really help my teaching skills and also in impacted a good and sophisticated knowledge. my approach includes assesing the potential all the students has and then define a constructive strategy to convey the knowledge to anyone, because one is to teach another is to be sure if the students really understand the knowledge pass to them. As it is best said that "education is the best legacy" in pursuit of this knowledge, i have had a tremendious success in education. I am a graduate student in chemistry at the tennessee state university, hoping to graduate by august, this achievement has enabled me to pass to other knowledge in the area of chemistry, mathematics, and other interesting science subjects.My exposure to communication to students while teaching or tutoring and reading articles, journal publication,writing research papers, laboratory report
